A/N
This was just something that I wrote a couple years ago in school and I just found it again so here you have it…

We starred at the girl.
"It's hard to believe Weapon X would mutate a young girl like her," Storm whispered quietly,
"She's not that young, she's 16!" Nightcrawler replied
"Quiet elf," growled Wolverine,
"So, what are her mutant X2 powers?" asked Shadowcat coming to stand by the other,
"I don't know, but Charles thinks she'll be helpful. She is definitely very powerful," replied Wolverine.
He signalled the group and they moved out. They approached the girl quietly. She turned around. She had dark brown hair pulled into a high ponytail and bright green eyes peered out at them.
"Hi!" she smiled, "I'm Lucy, and your dead meat,"
Cyclopes shot a beam at her. The beam barely missed her, skidding past her shoulder.
"You're just starting to annoy me now," snarled Wolverine. His claws shot out and he attacked. Storm reached a hand out to calm him down.
"We're just trying to help you," she said gently.
A snarl ripped up Lucy's throat, "no one wants to help me. I can survive on my own. The elements are at my command. Ice, electricity and matter do my bidding. Oh and this…"
Out of her hands came two claws. The same as Logan accept two instead of his three.
She smiled again as she turned to leave, "Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Your farewell present."
A flower grew in her cupped palms. She tossed it behind her shoulder and laughed. The flower flipped through the air before tumbling to the ground. As it made contact with the ground it exploded throwing the x-men back and short-circuiting all electrics within a square mile.
"Where'd she go?" asked Iceman climbing to his feet.
"We'll get her later," Wolverine grumbled rubbing his thigh.
High on the rooftops Lucy looked down on the small group climbing back into the 'Blackbird'. A single tear traced its way down her cheek, "tomorrow I'll set things right, tomorrow."

I jumped of the building and the wind picked up safely carrying me the ground. Reaching the ground I walked down the busy streets of Bayville. Everyone was buying last minute supplies for the holidays. Looking up at the sky, I saw that it seemed that the first snow was about to fall. Sure enough as I made my way down an alley, the snow started to fall in white flurries.
I heard footsteps, creeping up behind me. I whirled around to find myself face to face with Beast. I folded my arms across my chest and jutted out my chin.
"What do you want?" I asked curtly,
"Come back to the Institute, at least have a look around, then you can decide,"
Straight to the point huh. "Fine," I grumbled.
Not like I had much choice. I followed Beast back down the alley and to the waiting jet.
I crossed my arms and glared at the assembled crowd.
"Hi," said Shadowcat cheerfully,
"Hmpf," I grunted back.
"Well come on then," Wolverine ushered us into the Blackbird.
